Curatorial / Knowledge Introduction

Introduction:
The project of curatorial/knowledge is simultaneously a teaching program for post-graduate research and a mechanism for bringing together the experiences of working within art institutions and environments with modes of theoretical reflection and analysis being explored within the university. Both forums urgently require a complex mode of dialogue and exchange with one another, one in which experience and reflection can come together, not as service industries but as interlocutors, disturbing and agitating the surfaces of each other’s practice. As the boundaries between theory and practice continue to erode, we all feel the need to explore how these might come together beyond context or illustration.
